Personalized care for your dog or cat - Crouch

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Crouch
“Sarah was just incredible, and she was able to help when my plans changed on short notice. She kept my young and old pup entertained. She also sent some of the best pictures I have of them! Would highly recommend.”

“Virginia took amazing care of our dog Tana! She's a great communicator - she was prompt with responses, kept us updated with lots of photos, and welcomed any questions we had. She's organized and made sure that she had all of the information about Tana that she needed during the drop-off. As soon as Tana entered Virginia's beautiful yard and home, Tana seemed immediately comfortable, which was a big deal because Tana is generally pretty shy. We also felt very comfortable, as it was obvious that Virginia is a loving and caring person with dogs and people.”

About: I grew up with animals my entire life (dogs, cats, horses), and I finally got my own dog this year, a loving and friendly golden retriever. I still love to petsit for others. I have done pet sitting through rover for 6+ years and I have experience with horses through my childhood. I cleaned a horse barn every weekend during highschool and learned how to handle them. I am a Geologist with the Forest Service in Idaho City, where I also live. I work full time from 8-4:30pm in the office. The summer months I have very little capacity for dogsitting because of field work and I am involved with working wildfires. With pets in my home I am happy to give them free reign of the place! Please let me know if your dog has a habit of chewing items or counter surfing. When staying at a client's home, I am attentive to the pets, can provide walks and play-time, and I make sure to leave the house cleaner than I find it. Because I have grown up with pets and played an active part in taking care of them, I am in-tune to animals behavior.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Crouch
“Virginia did an amazing job taking care of my dog! She was very easy to communicate with, and was very obvious she cared for the well being of my dog. Update picture she sent was a bonus! We’re glad we found Virginia to take care of Benny and also glad that Benny got along with Roux. I’m pretty sure he had a good time there. Thanks Virginia!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Crouch

About: Hi! I’m 26, a Boise State graduate and former Honors College student, and I’m currently working toward my master’s degree. I also work at St. Luke’s three days a week, which gives me a really flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and pet sitting. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience with pets that have very different personalities and needs. I grew up with a cat, lived with a very reactive Pit Bull in college, and now have a 6-month-old Lab puppy of my own. Because of that, I’m comfortable with everything from puppy energy and basic training to dogs that need a little more patience, structure, and awareness of their surroundings. Having my own puppy has definitely reminded me how much work goes into raising a young dog! I’m very used to potty schedules, frequent walks, reinforcing good habits, keeping puppies entertained, and making sure they don’t get into absolutely everything they can find. I’m extremely responsible, organized, and dependable, but I’m also the kind of person who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being cared for by someone who will pay attention to their routine, personality, safety, and all the little details you give me. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a reactive dog who needs some extra patience, or a cat who prefers to do their own thing, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and treat them like one of my own. I work 3 days a week and very rarely on weekends so I am very flexible and have a really easy ability to move my schedule around to come see your pet. I am very good at following directions and take pet safety very seriously. I am sure I accommodate your dog whether that means you have a large backyard or you live in a small apartment and the dog is crate trained.
About: I have a wealth of experience and a genuine love for animals! My background in house and pet sitting spans more than 20 years, combined with 9 years of veterinary technician expertise, along with obedience and confirmation training, which makes me a valuable resource for home/pet owners. Highlighting my international experience and specialization in various types of animals, including exotic ones like elephants and large cats, sets me apart in the field. I would be happy to offer a chat. Meow, Barks, and Tail Waggggs 🐾 💖 Cheers Dusty xx PS: I am happy to offer references I am available full-time for pet care. As a retired individual with no outside obligations, I can devote my full attention to your fur babies—providing them with plenty of love, care, and companionship. Your pets will receive the highest level of care and attention. You set their routine, and I will follow it closely to ensure their daily needs, happiness, and well-being are fully met. 🐾
